***New*** Thrifty Gifty Money Making for Christmas and all occasions 2011***

I spy you are still up Elysia. So am I. We are naughty.

I just did another review on chow that i wrote last week but I am counting as I post a new one not write a new one, so that takes me to 30/45. I can't see me missing that target.

I think my brain is sure going to appreciate that week off when we get there, one week to go.

I've also been doing my bingo as that got rather neglected last month. If anyone has any tips to keep so many plates spinning then please share because it all starts to get a bit silly doesn't it.

I got a £5 am code from swagbucks today, and i naughtily bought myself two books for my kindle for going away. That is even though I have hundreds on there downloaded free but unread. Oh well. I still have £1.02 balance, and it soon builds up.

You deserve little treats along the way Michelle - or you'd give up. I read a review about a book the other day, that I want to download too.

Yep still up, and probably following you around.

Nothing on Grabbit, nothing going on anywhere else either. I'm definitely off to bed now. Night Michelle. x

Up early again - I feel like I haven't slept a wink. I'll have to stop reviewing late at night, because people's reviews were going around and around in my head - either that, or ideas for new ones.

In the end I got up, and I'm just about to write them - thank goodness I'm not a novelist, I'd never get any sleep.

Reminders for today - will try to remind everyone again later just in case. s&s receipts and barcodes and the tissue thingy for Legend.

Off to make another cuppa - back soon.

DS had me up at 6.30 so already done tissue thingy thanks Elysia! Was also going to remind everyone about S&S but got side tracked! lol

Morning all

Had a nice day yesterday, was OH's birthday so went out for lunch. I didnt really get on here at all.

I just checked T and I have one topic on 38 lol, but I expect you have all done it already. My smallest one is on 17. I doubt I will have time to do much on there today as we are going shopping in a bit and then have the family round this afternoon hopefully for a bbq.

I have rated the the ones that came in this mornings DY email but dont think I will be able to do anymore to this either until tonight or even tomorrow.

Rufus - I'll get to you. I've just done my reviews, and packaged DD2 off to the park on her bike with OH. Peace and quiet for an hour or two. I must get some house work done while they're out though. The house looks like a bomb has hit it.

Legend - well done. How's the £2.50 going, are you managing?

Nicky - How's bump? apart from a lack of Ice pops, how are you?

Bump and I are fine thanks I've got my 20 week scan on Wednesday. I really want to find out the sex of the baby now but DH really doesn't want to know, so I can't really.
The shop got more ice pops in thankfully! I got there just before a group of kids and they were waiting behind me for ice pops, DH said they were watching me laughing as I had so many! My favourites are the green and the yellow ones so I left them loads of red and brown ones, I hope they liked those flavours I've also been eating lots of frozen blackberries, mmmm gorgeous. At least I'm craving healthy things, my friend from work had a craving for beer! She didn't drink any though and tried to make do with non-alcoholic shandy, but she said it drove her crazy!

Morning gang

I'm the same Elysia. Finding it so hard to switch off. Maybe we need to only go on till a certain time.

We are going out to the cinema this afternoon with the kids. We have never taken them before. Going to see that Mr Poppers one, after seeing a good review.

So, I will not be about much, but will try and catch everyone later.

Have a lovely day, whatever you are doing.

Michelle - I hope you like it now - we did.

Have a good time - don't forget to take your own popcorn and drinks - it costs a fortune and you'd need another mortgage.

Nicky that's great. I'm so excited for you. My Step sister found out but didn't tell her OH, as he wanted a surprise. She felt like it made her bond more - like it was their little secret (hers and bumps).

I'm just working around everyone on T as promised. :A

Savvy, I just had to post. You had me laughing so much. :rotfl: Why are rubber ducks yellow??????? How can you answer that in 80 words. Because they are. :cool: 3 :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
